He’s the engine behind the Knicks and their most valuable player, he essentially upholds their identity of being strong on the boards and a strong offensive team all on his own. Not all of his benefit shows up on the stat sheet - on either side of the ball. I genuinely think he’s been better than Gobert, KAT, and Adebayo.

I am biased as a heat fan, but Bam is averaging 23/10/3 while also (at least until recently) leading the in defensive isolation coverage and holding opponents to 37% from the field. In my humble and biased opinion, he’s the 3rd best centre, and it’s not even close.
